[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is very good academic and extra curriculum activity. She is super talented. However we were not even waiting listed for holton. Is it possible that I waived the application fee. That could have back fired. Just want an opinion for future reference.[/quote]

Why did you waive the application fee? [/quote]

It was an honest mistake. Did that back fired.[/quote]

Doesn't sound like an honest mistake, but okay. I can't speak specifically to Holton. My DD applied years ago and was accepted, but attended a different school. We have been at 2 different privates. I don't think any school is truly need blind. Students that need financial aid will be competing against each other and the bar is higher for them. If the school is going to foot the bill, your kid needs to be TRULY special. Kids with all As and good extracurriculars are a dime a dozen. So there is a good chance your child was simply rejected because the competition is fierce whether you require financial aid or not. But you asking for a waiver of the application fee   could have played a part.[/quote]
